Google Stadia is bringing in some sports gaming fans with NBA 2K21. Visual Concepts’ wildly popular basketball sim is available for Stadia Pro users now until March 23. People who have been using their controllers to stream have been wondering when some of these giant titles would be making their way to the service. It seems that the publisher was not kidding when they said that they would be ramping up support for their project in the coming months. Google shuttered a lot of the first-party development for the Stadia, but is planning to bolster their library with some third-party offerings. Sports games could be a way to help close the gap as people just can’t get enough of things like FIFA, NFL, or NBA action. Check out their post down below:

Beef flying
Every time you reply to a Stadia tweet I try to work out how old you possibly are. By this one is say you’re no older than 10.
